Sustainability Tour at Oracle Park - Home of the San Francisco Giants

Oracle Park is an industry leader in environmental responsibility, with 13 Green Glove Awards over the past 15 seasons.

The Green Glove Award is presented annually to the club with the highest waste-diversion rate, which is accomplished through practices such as recycling, composting, food donations and energy recovery. The Giants achieved a nearly 100 percent waste-diversion rate en route to earning the Green Glove Award for the 13th time in 2023, more than any other club since the award was introduced in 2008.

Join fellow AWWEE members to learn more about the green practices and explore the first existing MLB ballpark to achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Platinum Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).

The Giants are also one of the largest contributors to the San Francisco Compost Program and use advanced drone technology to promote more sustainable water and fertilizing processes on the field. They also use anaerobic towers to grow fresh vegetation in The Garden, food that is eventually served at concessions stands throughout the ballpark.


Registration
